I'm inexplicably suddenly smitten with Raphaela. It's inexplicable because I really don't like Raphael, and I've never thought much about the feminine forms. I'm particularly enchanted by how Raphaela sounds with my Italian last name -- it's pronounced roughly like "lasagna," but it begins with a "b" and ends with an "i." Raffaella would be more ~authentic~ because it's Italian, but I don't love the double "f" followed by a double "l." So, Raphaela is my preferred form. What do you think?
